I have a set of DG5 coilovers that I want to put in my 2006 Base 6MT soon but I want to make sure I have all of the suspension must haves at the same time so I'm not doing things twice. Things like compression rod bushings, toe bolts, subframe bushings, etc. I'm putting a 600hp LS2 in the Z in the very near future so many parts will be seeing a lot more stress. This car is my DD and I don't mind a little rougher ride for the sake of performance but this is no full on racecar. Things like adjustable camber arms and control arms are nice and all but right now my focus is the "while you're down there, you might as well knock this out because it's a no-brainer and you'll be back later for it anyways" kind of stuff.

 

Knock out the compression and LCA arm bushings while your doing it. get yourself some rear camber arms and toe bolts and you should be good. Make sure when you get it aligned, have them set the rear camber between -0.5 and -1.0 for the traction you need for that motor. Other than that, not much else is needed other than you diff, diff bushings and change the subframe bushings when you do yoru full install.

Also, make sure you buy wheels with the proper offset to run wide rear tires. 11 inch wide rears with an offset around 25 would be perfect.

 

I would buy all of the SPL bushings and suspension parts or all of the whiteline bushings + SPL suspension parts.

 

Thanks guys. Advice taken. Going all SPL (rear camber arms, toe bolts, compression bushings, LCA bushings, diff bushings) + Whiteline subframe bushings.

 

Get the sikky raised subframe bushings
